Weird rationale on all of this stuff

[bodyforlife]

So many businesses, including my workplace think they'll be opening back up in the first week of April. I'm questioning why they would be thinking that? If anything, it would be more logical to think this thing will go on for months.

If they tell you 14 days it willbe months. This thing won't clear up that fast. If they BELIEVE it needs 14 days it needs 2 months. They just don't want to tell people that. It would be worse. They will inch this thing on for a minimum 3 months imo

Trying to buy time, flatten the curve, get supplies/helpful medicines???

We can’t stay shut down until we know for sure it has run its course, can we:think2:

Flattening the curve would mean significantly more time...that's my point.

agree...I’m predicting April 20th (many schools closed thru Apr 17th) we see many returning back to work

The longer the lockdown...the larger the chance for a legit total collapse suddenly becomes because of the interconnectedness of everything.
Only 80% of businesses in Wuhan are operating...they have been opening in stages for over 40 days.
If everything blows up, at least most everyone will be in it together...may be inevitable and that's the new world order's plan.

Prophecy consensus is that the virus is cleared up by the middle of April...but I believe the financial effects of this experiment will be felt for years.

No anger and defiance in asking how long people think this thing is going to last. Try and follow the thread.

some schools April 6th. That would be a miracle and maybe save some businesses, thru May and lots of folks out of business

my buddy that owns restaurants having to lay 450 people off , it’s killing him but he can’t pay and will be lucky if he can reopen one of this thing drags to May

doubt anyone can put a date on it. Country needs to open sooner than later

Shouldn't have had the shutdown to begin with. I said it from the beginning

i would say May 1 best case, Aug 1 worst case

unfortunately the numbers will never make sense on why we shut down the US economy and then why we're going to give upwards of $4T to companies as long as they employee 500+ people far BEFORE we have any idea what the true economic impact will be

90% of american companies employ 0-20 people and only 0.5% employ >500. Instead of providing stimulus to 90% they will provide to just 0.5%. see how this works yet?

Yep. The small business backbone of America is fucked

Yep. The small business backbone of America is fucked

so the issue is when a big chunk of the small businesses call it quits...for whatever reason...where do these millions of people go? gonna take some outside the box thinking...
